My turbo wash heads just removed my wifes nail polish..... :laughing-rolling:
And the SG with the alco-hydrometer says my collected spirit is 96%. I hope this is a good thing??

Yep they'll do that. Did you adjust the alcohol reading for temperature

It's because there is acetone and methanol in your heads

Are you talking foreshots or heads?

Always keep a bottle under the sink..... most of mine goes towards lighting the charcoal bbq
